Africa is Not a Country Project

Frequently, I hear students, and others, mistakenly call Africa a country or assume all of countries in Africa are the same. In reality Africa is a large continent with over 50 different countries, with diverse cultures.

In order to help students see the diversity among African countries, students have been working on the Africa is Not a Country project. For this project, students had to pick one ABC of Culture and research that topic in 5 African countries (one from each region). For example, if a student chose A, they would research the art in the 5 African countries they chose.

Students should have the project completed and turned in by Friday, April 20.
